The Interoperability Imperative for Libraries: Supporting Scholarly Services and Workflows

This event has passed.

Research universities exist in a dynamic space, buffeted by intensifying pressures exerted by globalization and competition as well as increasing demands to demonstrate compliance with external reporting and open access mandates. Advancing technologies, standards, and networked information offer new and improved ways to collect, manage, and openly share research information and outputs, and interoperability is becoming an imperative for libraries as well as other scholarly communications stakeholders.

Library-supported services like institutional repositories (IR), research data management (RDM), and research information management (RIM) are increasingly intersecting, driven by needs for improved workflows for researchers. These systems may also intersect with non-library services such as annual academic review workflows and institutional reporting.
